Profile[]Personal summary[]Physical appearance[]Gale is a rotund, middle-aged man, with a red hair in a receding hairline, a thin mustache at the corners of his wide mouth, and matching soul patch beneath his lips. He has green eyes and thin red eyebrows that are always elevated in a look of almost astonishment. He wears a blue tile-patterned jacket and pink vest over a white shirt and purple pants held up with a black belt. A yellow bow-tie completes his garish ensemble. It is clear from photos and other in-game evidence that Gale was much skinnier when he was younger, and has put on a considerable amount of weight since his wife, Liza, died. []Gale's family in Portia include Gust, his son, and Ginger, his daughter. Gale dotes upon and closely protects Ginger, given her frail health and sheltered life. The details of Gale's relationship with Gust are unknown, but Gust seems to look down on his father's optimistic view of the world and other people. Gale's late wife was a woman called Liza, who passed away giving birth to Ginger. A large portrait of her hangs on the wall in his office. Russo is Gale's butler, Best Friend, and a fellow veteran of the war with Duvos who has dedicated his life to caring for Gale and his family. Mint is also a long-time family friend. When befriending Gale, his relationship network with other NPCs will also be affected, resulting in the player receiving favor points from those NPCs as well.
